Sport opens the door to a terrifying disease

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – According to a recent US study, exercise plays an important role in preventing Alzheimer's disease or dementia by stimulating the body to produce a hormone that improves memory and keeps the brain healthy.
The study was conducted by researchers at the Columbia University School of Medicine and published in the latest issue of the journal Nature Medicine.
The researchers said that athletes know that intense exercise can stimulate the body to release a torrent of endorphins, which helps relieve pain, provides a sense of comfort and improvement, and is a good hormone to promote mood.
They said that physical activity was known to improve memory, and studies suggest that it could also reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease, but researchers do not understand why.
